[pct-l] Fwd: Bear Vault Failure? Reported



Has anyone heard about this. I was just about to invest in the new 
smaller Bear Vault for week-end'ers.

Just a quick note to let you all know that a bear south of Whitney has 
figured out how to open a Bear Vault bear canister.  What the rangers 
at Lone Pine figure is it watched someone open one and just kind of 
muscles it past the locking tabs.  It (the bear) has already broken 
into 3 or 4 of them.  If the bear can't open it they said it just jumps 
on it till it breaks open.  Still no issues with the Garcia bear 
canister.
